Over several years, speculation has continued about the
periodic disappearance of ducks from some Canberra ponds. Some experts
attribute this to an aquatic creature referred to for want of a better label as
‘the Duck-grabbing Frog’. ( It should be mentioned that there are others,
called by some ‘Duck-grabbing Frog deniers’, who do not share this
theory.) Now this unusual photograph provides convincing evidence to
support the position of those who have believed in the frog.
To help the Canberra Times Environmental Reporter produce an
accurate story can anyone name the frog and duck species shown here?
